Personal Bio/PreCareer Summary

Jason Preston was born in Orlando, Florida in August of 1999. Preston was raised by his mom until she passed away when he was a junior in high school.

Preston made the MAC All-Freshman Team after putting up six points, 3.6 rebounds and 3.4 assists per game. As a sophomore, Preston became the second player in team history to record a triple-double after he recorded 15 points, 10 assists and 10 rebounds against Miami (Ohio). He made the All-MAC Second Team and was second in the nation in assists. As a junior, Preston averaged 15.7 points, 7.3 rebounds and 7.3 assists per game. He recorded his second triple-double on January 23rd, 2021, against Ball State. Preston was named the MVP of the MAC Conference Tournament and led Ohio to a 2021 NCAA March Madness Tournament berth. Preston recorded 11 points, 13 rebounds and eight assists, leading Ohio (13 seed) to a 62-58 upset of Virginia (4 seed).

Healthy for camp

Preston (personal) will be a full participant in training camp, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.
ANALYSIS
Preston missed back-to-back games to end Summer League action due to personal reasons, but he's ready to roll for camp. The Jazz signed Preston to a two-way contract over the offseason, and it's likely that he spends most of his time in Salt Lake to open the 2024-25 season.

2021 Fantasy Outlook
Preston was selected by the Clippers with the 33rd overall pick in the 2021 NBA Draft. One of the most incredible stories in a long time, Preston, who barely saw the floor as a high-school senior, averaging under 2.5 points per game, has made it to the NBA. However, Preston will still need to earn a roster spot on a Clippers team that is built to win now and is already loaded with talent at the guard position. The 6-foot-4, 187-pound guard averaged 15.7 points, 7.3 rebounds and 7.3 assists with the Ohio Bobcats last year.

Preston is averaging 12.1 points and 8.7 assists with a 3.95 AST/TO ratio through nine games with Memphis' G League affiliate this season.

He's also chipping in 6.8 rebounds and 1.0 steals per game. Cut by the Clippers during training camp, Preston hasn't been able to crack the Grizzlies' rotation despite a serious rash of injuries striking the backcourt this season.
